I don't find that string... neither in f18ovn03 (where I configured
fencing and clicked the test button) nor in f18ovn01 (the node that
oVirt should have used to test fencing I suppose)

Starting point was f18ovn03 and f18ovn01 configured without power mgmt
I went into edit f18ovn03 and configured power mgmt.
After click "test", after several seconds returned successful in the
power mgmt window.
But when I clicked "ok" button to save, then I saw the error in events
tray of the gui.
And the host in "reboot" state in the Gui with hourglass: is this
expectd behaviour when you configure power mgmt for a host that it is
rebooted?
The host remained in "reboot" state with hourglass so I went to see
the iLO console.
And I saw that the server was in power off state.
I waited a little but nothing happened.
I noticed that if I powered on the server, after a few seconds it was
powered off again.... I presume by oVirt...
